Ahh right. Cheers. Need some metallic scratch remover. Dropped my pannier without retainer strap attached and bloody caught the floor. Gutted.

On Sunday 7th July, I'll be riding back home from Shrewsbury to Teesside. There is the option of a scenic route through the Peak District with a railway theme. P&T stops are planned for the Churnet Valley Railway (near Leek), Castleton (centre of Peak District), Kirklees Light Railway (near Holmfirth) & Tadcaster. If anyone heading north would like to join me for some or all of the journey, you'd be most welcome. Andy should be with me all the way.
If anyone would like to stay on the Saturday night only, there is still room available at the inn, £77.00 Flexible rate, room only.

Excellent, that'll be three of us heading back to Teesside together.
We might even get some of the other "Northern Monkeys" joining us part-time.
Garmin BaseCamp .gpx routes are available if required.

Sounds like a "Northern Monkeys" ride out coming on.
We could all head to the Bank View (Spotty) Café at Langsett & split from there,

Two Henry's pub next door to the Travelodge does a breakfast from 8am Sat & Sun for those who haven't booked the breakfast with their room. £4.29 for an English breakfast or £6.29 for a 'big' English (same prices for the Vegetarian equivalent)
